LHR to Full hashrate incoming soon allegedly 02/26/2022

just came across this:

Deleted the youtube video link.  The content creator is now bashing the people who are calling it a scam...

edited:... i deleted the link to the developer... it's a newbie account 5 days old

pulled from github dev site.

don't know if it's true until it gets released and someone is the test dummy...  

if it's not true i'll just delete this post..

Even if is true it wont change anything, the difficulty will increase a lot and in the end you will earn the same. You might earn more in the beginning till everybody updates it. Now, if only you have the way to then yes, mining is competition, you will only win if you are ahead of other people. I know that nvidia gave a way to some big farms to full hashrate since the start of this lite hash, maybe with this full hashrate for everybody will be lot more fair because at moment only asic owners and big farms are getting some more or less decent profit.

Using RAR seems an odd choice. I don't think I've seen a RAR file in over 10 years.
It was popular before broadband for posting large multipart archives to NNTP, but it isn't freeware.

If this project is a scam it's a pretty intricate one if it can do GPU management. That's a lot of extra
baggage just for a malware decoy.

I think the scams will primarily be people offering modded files.

Likely a scam/malware, be careful!

The attention it got is because of that youtuber, meaning, youtubers only want likes and views, meaning, he will not care whether is a malware or the sort, anyway, dont pay attention to it, too many miners devs trying to get the full hashrate and still nothing close to it, all lhr unlocks are tricking the gpu to think that current task is not related to mining, when the gpu finds out then it let that process to starve, gaming can use 100% of that gpu resource so in theory there is a way to divert that. It will need sometime to unlock fully but it will happen.

Likely a scam/malware, be careful!

This is more or less a virus/scam attempt due to many wanting to jump on this unlock. But needing to do it thru windows and modding is suspicious.

If you type in lhr unlocker into doing a search for youtube you will see over 25+ videos of scam attempts with fake videos by newbie accounts just created with real crypto miner influencers on the photo clip like Son of a tech and Life of a Miner just to draw curious people in and have them follow instructions that have nothing to do with the miner.
More likely keylogger that can compromise your machine and or rig,
Think of you mining to someone elses address due to a exe changing the deposit address and sending your mined coins to this wallet address.
That is why it dangerous to just take these "creators" word when it comes to the this kind of hype.

This is definitely a scam however in my opinion I think Nvidia should be able to release an unlock for this cap when the time is right.

The point of LHR was so gamers would be able to get their hands on GPUs during all these shortages. Eventually the shortages will come to an end and cards will be affordable again, and when that happens Nvidia should unlock all these cards. Most likely it’s possible with a firmware.

Why would Nvidia ever release an unlock?
They put the lock in the first place!
The next model's they release will not have LHR mode enabled if this is the case then.

The past unlocks for lhr cards have been done by devs but only partial ones and when people started hearing about someone (which was made to sound like a russian dev for obvious reasons) unlocking it fully they of course got excited. But shouldn't blindly believe in it.
But they do seem to have the unlocks timed upon new driver releases.

Clearly malware - the github user is three days old, there's no source, you're forced to run it on windows, and also load a driver provided by some random?
Also, the binaries aren't uploaded to the git repository's Releases page (like all the other closed-source apps, like TeamRedMiner or SRBMiner or etc) - probably because they'll flag his shit.

I don't know how much louder it could scream "malware!"

We can cross our fingers and hope this is the case. I’m not so sure. I think they’re likely to keep things as they are and release mining only GPUs that they’ll urge crypto miners to buy. Considering miners are still buying every LHR gpu at msrp they can get their hands on, there’s still much progress to be made. I just don’t see any upside for them to ever unlock them. I hope I’m wrong and you’re right, as limiting hardware doesn’t seem like something I want to see happening in the future, but I have my doubts.

Sooner or later all LHR GPUs will get their full hashrate unlocked, to me it matters that LHR gets full hashrate even if mining isn't profitable anymore, the best time to mine is always bear market, I hope bear market comes this year I can't wait any longer.

I'm with adaseb on this. It was only done to appease gamers, their favorite market. When the supply issue is solved they'll
want to sell to anyone who will buy them and won't want to be at a disadvantage against AMD.

If they get serious about mining GPUs, they aren't now, they won't be recyling old tech.

This is scam - all RTX Ax000 cards have no Hashrate lock  so why they need a unlocker? at this point everybody must see the scam in my opinion. A nice looking gui? For a developer is this the last thing to build.
Don´t share this video or link to the "developer" and give him attention! - this is the only thing he want.

I wanted to point out to him also that the RTX Ax000 don't have a hashrate lock.
but then i started reading the threads on his youtube channel and noticed he's bashing anyone that has doubts about it.

This is literally one of the dumbest questions I’ve gotten yet congratulations. Probably because it’s news and it’s relevant to what we’re doing regardless of knowing if it’s real or not it is still an article that came out today that people are going to talk about. It is no different than reading the weather wrong on your local news channel if this happens to be some sort of scam or BS article




just looked at the github..
how has this been forked 79 times when there isn't any there?... so i guess it's going to show up in scams 79 more times?

[JayDDee]

There's no software posted but he's getting a lot of youtube attention. Maybe there is no malware,
that takes too much effort. Getting youtube views is so much easier.

i've watched his discord channel for a few months now... interesting ideas about mining in a grow tent.

Why would Nvidia ever release an unlock?

They can unlock but I dont see them doing that for the mass, like I said before they already sold millions of gpus to big farms with the lock unlocked, the only way they will unlock for the masses is only if intel or amd give the masses a better deal than what nvidia does and for that to happen nvidia will still have to be selling 3xxx series if not then forget, nvidia will never have a reason to unlock the 3xxx series if they already have a 4xxx series in stores, true bear market will happen in few months and with that competition to sell new gpus will be fierce, people will buy second hand gpus.

RMP did a video about it, you trolls watchout.

[JayDDee]

Why would Nvidia ever release an unlock?

Because it's work to continuously support/improve it on new cards.
Because fighting LHR has become an escalating arms race Nvidia may not want to continue.
Because it puts Nvidia at a self-inflicted competitive disadvantage vs AMD.

Edit: one more

Because if and when Eth goes POS LHR will become dead weight.

This special driver unlock is out on the news everywhere and funnily nobody says if is real or not, what the hell?

I do have the knowledge to not get caught in the scam attempt but I dont have any lhr gpu so I cant test it here, if you want to test make sure to use on isolated network and computer.
